"Thank you for your praise, senior!" Hong Ling bowed and said to Xiao Chuhe. He had always felt that his Imperial Sword Technique was unorthodox, he never thought that it would actually be able to get the recognition of an elder who was proficient in Sword Manipulation. How could he not be happy?

"This is not a compliment, but my true opinion!" Xiao Chuhe shook his head, then continued, "The so-called Sword Manipulation, is actually when a cultivator imprints their own soul inside a sword, and nurtures it into a sword spirit. On the day the sword spirit was first formed, the cultivator used his own cultivation technique to create a spirit vein for the sword spirit, allowing it to have the ability to swallow and spit out Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power. When the sword spirit has mastered itself, and then use the sword intent that you have comprehended as the sword spirit to cast your body, this will be the complete process of cultivation of the Imperial Sword Technique. "

"Many people, because they could not comprehend the sword intent, would never be able to cultivate Sword Manipulation. Furthermore, after comprehending the sword intent, one still needs to slowly nurture a spirit sword. Once the sword spirit has formed and formed a connection with the sword master's heart, one can take a person's head thousands of miles away! " Xiao Chuhe continued to speak. He looked at Hong Ling's thoughtful appearance and nodded. It would seem that since this youth was able to comprehend the art of controlling the sword on his own, his own comprehension ability was extremely strong as well.

Hong Ling carefully thought about Xiao Chuhe's words. After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh.

"Thank you senior for your pointers, Hong Ling will be forever grateful!"

Xiao Chuhe shook his head, as if he didn't care. He kept the sword back into the sword sheath, casually patted his sleeves, and asked Hong Ling: "I heard that you want to join my Jixia Academy?"

The teenager was startled, then nodded his head and joined Jixia Academy. To him, it was not bad at all. He himself didn't want to join any sects or forces, nor did he want to join any of the large families, so Jixia Academy was undoubtedly the best choice.

"Yes, senior. This junior has always wanted to join Jixia Academy!" Hong Ling said impatiently.

"Oh, since you want to join Jixia Academy so much, can you tell me the reason?" Xiao Chuhe asked curiously, only to see Hong Ling casually taking out a golden order badge, and placing it in his hands.

"Senior, do you recognize this item?" Hong Ling asked in anticipation as he handed over the command tablet his father had left on him to Xiao Chuhe.

Xiao Chuhe's expression instantly changed. He quickly grabbed the token and with a flick of his sleeve, brought the youth to a large hall. He casually waved his hand, and a vast Authentic Qi appeared in the hall, completely sealing the entire hall.

"How did you get this?" Xiao Chuhe gasped for breath as he asked, his eyes filled with shock as he stared straight at Hong Ling. Your name is Hong Ling? Your surname is Hong? "

Hong Ling nodded. Seeing Xiao Chuhe's expression, he knew that the order badge his father gave him was no small matter.

"Senior, this item was left behind by my father!"

"Who is your father?" Xiao Chuhe asked nervously.

"Great Chu's champion, Hong Qing!"

"What about your mother?"

"Shang Xue!"

"What evidence?"

Weng, a small crystal was slowly taken out by Hong Ling's soul consciousness from the depths of the Divine Hall. This crystal was a memory crystal, left behind by his mother Shang Xue. But up until now, Hong Ling still could not unlock it. The only thing he knew was that this crystal had given him a hint of information, asking him to come to Jixia Academy.

Xiao Chuhe looked at the crystal in front of him, his eyes filled with shock. He looked at Hong Ling and indicated for him to keep it.

"Right now, I am already ninety percent certain that you are Hong Qing's son. However, I need someone else to appraise this final ten percent. It's a big deal, and I can't be too sure. I can't open this crystal, but someone can, so you have to wait for a while! When I get hold of that person, I will get him to come and appraise you! " Xiao Chuhe took in a deep breath and stared at the youth in front of him in shock. He said, "Remember, from today onwards, do not mention your identity to anyone. At the very least, before that person admits your identity!"

"Senior, who exactly is that person you spoke of?" Hong Ling was a little curious.

"I can't say, but very soon, you will know!" Xiao Chuhe returned the Golden Token to him and after seeing him put it away, he casually waved his hand to remove the barrier. When he brought Hong Ling out, Qingyao was already waiting outside the great hall with his master and servant.

"Geezer, what did you bring this brat along for?" Qingyao carelessly asked.

"Of course I'm asking him for your betrothal gift!" Xiao Chuhe was obviously in a good mood as he joked.

"No, Hong Ling cannot give you a betrothal gift!" Su Yu coldly snorted, he stood in front of Xiao Chuhe and said stubbornly. He's my boyfriend, if I don't agree with him marrying Qingyao, Big Sister Lian Chengyue will also not agree! "

Hong Ling felt a headache, looking at the current Su Yu, his eyes were filled with helplessness. This silly girl, could it be that Xiao Chuhe was joking with his daughter?

"Little girl, it's not okay if you don't agree. It'll be better if he does!" Qingyao looked at Su Yu and laughed. When she said the word 'small', she purposefully suppressed her tone and puffed out her breasts. The provocative look in her eyes was very arrogant.

Su Yu was instantly angered and anxious, she angrily stomped her feet and looked at Hong Ling with hidden bitterness.

"Big brother Hong Ling, tell her that you don't agree to the betrothal gift. Quickly!"

Hong Ling coughed awkwardly, he did not know what to do now, but just because he did not say anything, did not mean that Su Yu was helpless. The young girl suddenly smiled slightly. Her face was filled with a crafty expression.

"Big Brother Hong Ling, I remember that I can still make an unreasonable request of you right?"

"Of course you can, but if you want to rely on this request to break the agreement between Qingyao and I, then I will not be able to agree!" Hong Ling coughed dryly and laughed bitterly.

"I don't want you to break your promise with her. I want you to be my boyfriend!" Su Yu smiled slightly, "I think, this request is too excessive!"

"Not at all!" Hong Ling said helplessly, he was about to cry, "It's not excessive at all!"

"So you agree?" Su Yu was pleasantly surprised, seeing that Hong Ling wanted to speak, she immediately covered Hong Ling's mouth and said: "Don't speak, even if you refuse, I will take it as you agreeing! Do you understand? "

Hong Ling's mouth was covered by her hands as he nodded helplessly. If he did not agree, then what else could he do? He could only blame himself for playing some kind of game at the banquet last night. Seeing him nod, Su Yu released the hand that was covering him, then looked at Qingyao with a refreshed expression and raised his chin, raising his eyebrows, showing his intent of showing off clearly.

Just as Qingyao was about to say something, a ripple suddenly appeared in the space in front of him, and Fang Qian's figure slowly appeared from it. A few figures also appeared along with him. Hong Ling looked carefully and saw that it was Lian Chengyu, who had currently become pale, as well as Zhihuo and Qiu Yu.

"Big Brother Lian Cheng!" Hong Ling quickly ran over, and looked at the stretcher that was being held by Fang Qian's Authentic Qi, and slowly landed. The master of the Tianhuang City, Lian Chenglie, also came along with Fang Qian. At this moment, he was looking worriedly at his son and his future daughter-in-law.

"Hong Ling, you're here? I never thought that I would meet you in such a way. It is truly shameful! " Lian Chengyu laughed bitterly, while lying on a stretcher, Zhihuo nodded at him, and did not say a word. Her face was currently pale, and she could barely nod towards Hong Ling.

"Senior Fang Qian, I wonder why the doctors that invited you did not come?" Hong Ling opened his mouth to ask and answer.

"I've seen all the doctors, but I'm not confident that I can cure them. It was not that their medical skills were not good, but because of their injuries. The root of their injuries was the remnant power of the saint artifact in their bodies. Those doctors could not guarantee that they would not harm the two of them, so no one dared to take on the mission! " Fang Qian shook his head and said.

"The power of a saint artifact?" Hong Ling's gaze turned cold, "You mean to say, in the bodies of Big Brother Lian Cheng and Zhihuo, there are remnants of the divine artifact's power?"

"Yes, the two of them activated the Century-round Meridian's saint imprint and prepared to teleport away after losing to Aohan, but they were hurt by a pearl on Aohan's body! At this moment, the force has already corroded both of them. If they were to forcibly expel it, they would most likely lose their lives in an instant! " Fang Qian explained in detail.

Hong Ling frowned when he heard this. If that was really the case, then Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo had been injured by Aohan's Ice Snow Dragon Pearl. He bent down and placed his hand on Lian Chengyu's wrist, his mind entering it bit by bit, and he quickly found the pitch black profound ice energy that filled Lian Chengyu's limbs and bones. This really did belong to the power of the sacred artifact. It had come from the Profound Ice Power of the Ice Dragon Pearl that he had fused with the Sorrow Spirit.

No, Hong Ling very quickly found another extremely weak but incomparably tyrannical power within. This wave of energy seemed to be slowly devouring Lian Chengyu's vitality, and even seemed to be devouring his innate talent.

"This is the Ghost Erosion Poison!" Hong Ling's eyes erupted with a strong killing intent in that instant, who exactly was it, for it to be so venomous, and actually plant such a demonic corrosive poison in Lian Chengyu's body?

"Big Brother Lian Cheng, other than fighting with Aohan, you probably haven't fought with anyone else before right?" Hong Ling asked, seeing Lian Chengyu nod his head, he then asked: "Then, after you arrived at the Tianqi City, did you have any conflicts with anyone?"

Lian Chengyu pondered for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and after hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head. This made Hong Ling's pupils constrict. Lian Chengyu seemed to be afraid of something.

"Qiuyu, who do you think Big Brother Lian Cheng and the others clashed with?" Hong Ling asked Qiu Yu, who was taking care of Zhihuo.

"Big Brother Hong Ling, earlier, when the Young Lord of Heaven Medicine Pavilion wanted to take liberties with Big Sister Zhihuo, he was stopped by Big Brother Lian Cheng. Later on, when Big Brother Lian Cheng and the others were at Heaven Medicine Pavilion, they were kept dry and no one helped treat them. It was only until Senior Fang Qian appeared did the doctors step in to treat him. During this time, the Heaven Medicine Pavilion Young Lord even threatened Big Brother Lian Cheng to give Big Sister Zhihuo as a concubine, but he was rejected by Big Brother Lian Cheng! " Qiu Yu said timidly.

"Senior Fang Qian, is what Qiu Yu said true?" Hong Ling's gaze was a little cold, and even everyone present felt a chill.

Fang Qian laughed bitterly and nodded. As Hong Ling placed his hand on Zhihuo's wrist, his consciousness once again slowly spread out through his limbs and bones, and after a long while, he stood up coldly with eyes filled with anger.

"Senior Fang, please help me prepare a secret meditation room. I want to help Big Brother Lian Cheng and Zhihuo recuperate from their injuries!" At this time, Hong Ling restrained the killing intent in his body, "I need a secret room that is absolutely quiet, because if I do not help the two of them expel the poison from their bodies, the two of them might not live past the month!"

"Ghost Erosion Poison!" Fang Qian exchanged a glance with Lian Chenglie, his eyes suddenly bursting with overflowing killing intent. After a long while, he sighed, and said: "Okay, I'll immediately prepare it for you, but are you confident?"

Hong Ling nodded his head, his eyes a look of caution. He said to Lian Chenglie, "Uncle, please stand by the side and protect me!"
